I honestly still can’t believe they did this

it’s just photos on a desk! it’s not even in the same league as his fucking birthday note! removing it after the fact is the biggest possible “we are covering shit up” signal they could possibly send, couldn’t look guiltier if they tried
This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release.

AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

2/ It wld be more viable in practical terms if once a prize court rules in the favor of the privateer the privateer could sell the cocaine into the Miami or Gulf Coast market. So Lee's bill shld package the Letters with a pardon for the drug trafficking similar to the deal the Honduran prez got.

Gets to key point. Letters of marque are most often issued by powers without a robust navy. It's the ultimate privatization. You take your seized vessel to a prize court at a port of the issuing power. Are you going to sell the cocaine? The boats themselves hardly look like valuable assets.

This image (File 468 in the Epstein records), showing Donald Trump, was part of the DOJ’s Friday release and has since vanished from the agency’s website. Funny how that works. Someone must have missed that redaction, oops.

Yesterday we were all waiting in the Epstein line. Today, the entire country has turned into investigators, tracking which files are disappearing. Sixteen gone so far. There’s been a remarkable amount of teamwork, with people working together to identify the missing documents.

Troop trains carrying personnel, armored vehicles, fuel, and ammunition pass through this critical hub for enemy forces in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhia directions, as well as in Donetsk and Crimea. The sabotage created a chain reaction of delays and disruptions in supplies for the occupiers.

💔 All that remains of Toretsk, home to about 30,000 people before Russia's arrival.

The town was completely destroyed by the Russians. It will likely not be rebuilt, as it was a mining town, and all the mines have been destroyed, and Russia has no use for them.

➡️ To avoid Putin’s attack on Europe and NATO, we must increase defense spending and production, and ensure that Ukraine remains as strong as possible in the fight.

➡️ Putin is ready to sacrifice 1.1 million of his own people. Minimal territorial gains, less than 1% of Ukrainian territory.
